About First Metropolitan Church
First Metropolitan Church is a strong pillar in the Northwest community of the Cypress Fairbanks area in Houston, Texas. The church is 31 years old and is led by Pastors John and Evelyn Ogletree. First Met is a family of faith leading people to become fully devoted followers of Christ by Belonging, Connecting, Growing and Serving. We strive to build strong families and equip them to be progressive citizens in their community. Our goal is to meet their needs spiritually, emotionally, economically, as well as physically through teaching, counseling, training, developing leaders, promoting fun and providing a campus where they can play and pray together. We offer support services to our members and the city of Houston through our food and clothing pantry, child development center and a summer camp. First Met is very mission minded in caring for the disadvantage. We provide missionary services internationally by building homes and sending food to Haiti. This year we built 10 homes. Our goal is to make a noticeable difference in the lives of all people which will bring enjoyment and a better way of life for generations to come.
